Corpse! May 2013
It’s London in 1936 , the day of the royal abdication, and the scene is set for the carefully plotted crime. ‘Corpse!’ is a comedy thriller telling the story of one identical twin’s plot to kill the other. Evelyn, a ‘resting’ actor engages the genial but rather shady Major Powell to dispose of his twin, in order to assume his persona and inherit his fortune. Will their plan be foiled by Evelyn’s amorous landlady or by an inquisitive police constable?
As with most ‘fool-proof’ plans things do not go as they should, and people are not what they seem. ‘Corpse!’ is not so much a whodunit as a whodunit to whom!
